My venerable Logitech Mouse a is nearing the end of it’s life and I’m thinking about a replacement. Since I have no plans to switch my Gaming PC to Windows 11 I would like to have a mouse (and eventually a keyboard) that properly supports Linux.

I looked at the sites for Corsair, Logitech and Razer and the corresponding software is available for Windows (and sometimes MacOS for some reason) but no Linux Version.

Since I actually use some of the fancy Gaming-Gear functionality like setting up macros and variable DPI I’d like to use the software that is used to set these things up.
How do you guys deal with this?
Is there a manufacturer that offers their software for Linux?
Do these things run properly under Wine?

    I prefer logiops to piper because it lets you chord, e.g. hold back button and swipe right I have configured to switch activites in kde, so you get five times the bang for your buttons (static, swipe up, down, left, right). You can then use the key combos it generates in games.
